Everyone at my event had such a great time with Anita. Her henna art was phenomenal and had such amazing detail. She was quick with making sure everyone interested was able to get tattooed and had great conversation while working. We also really enjoyed the ambiance of her set up as well. We highly recommend her!
She was an amazing artist. She stayed a little longer to accommodate us. Very communicative, cooperative, friendly, amazing . Would highly recommend. Definitely hire again.
Anita was amazing! We booked her for our post prom of about 130 kids from 11-1am and she was wonderful. She was prompt with communication, was great with the kids, set up on time and brought a fun tent with another artist. Her freehand artwork was beautiful! Would definitely recommend her for any event!
Anita is an amazing henna artist! I did extensive research before hiring someone in the Madison area. Anita offers a fair price, an excellent experience, and good results. You can trust Anita and I would recommend any bride to choose her for their big day!
Anita was very professional and personable. She made all the guests feel so comfortable. I highly recommend the tent she offers for her services. Very beautiful set up.
Anita was amazing and very personable :)
Do not hesitate to book your henna session with Anita! She was fantastic. I great artist, very personable and made my adult bday party super special. A total professional.
Thanks Anita, you’ll be my go to for future paintings.
So happy I found Hands of Henna by Anita. She was such a pleasure to work with. Our event was a late one, and we needed her from 10:45pm-1:45am. She was so accommodating and had many great ideas for the set up. The students loved it! And the artwork was wonderful. Even some of the adult volunteers got one. I would recommend Anita if you are looking for a great henna artist, with reasonable costs. Thanks again Anita!!;)
Anita came to our senior living community and presented on Indian clothes and customs as well as the traditions and making of henna painting. Our residents had so much fun trying on clothes, practicing henna painting and then receiving their own henna painting from Anita if they desired. Anita has a warm and welcoming personality. If you are looking for henna painting Anita is a perfect choice.
I highly recommend Anita for any event. It was a lovely addition to my daughter‘s sweet 16 birthday party. She has great energy, is kind, and super talented.
Anita was amazing. She did awesome henna art on all the girls, brought a gift and taught the girls the history of henna. Wonderful experience.
She brought 3 artists to our event. Set up a beautiful tent and has a great system. Did beautiful unique henna on each person and were able to keep up with many people at the event. I highly recommend!
Anita is truly amazing! She was kind, compassionate, very courteous, funny and just a joy all around to work with. This was my first henna experience and I am so glad I chose her as my artist for my maternity photos. She made the experience very special and her work is wonderful!
We had a fantastic time with Anita. It was a group of mature women, many who have never had henna. She worked with everyone on designs they would like and was very patient. The henna was beautiful. Thanks Anita!
My daughters first henna experience was at the Brady Street Festival with Anita. In the years to follow, she has been in love with henna. We were overjoyed that Anita was able to share this experience with our daughter and her friends this past weekend. It was our daughter's last birthday before adulthood and Anita made it special and memorable. Each of our daughter's closest friends went home with a special gift as well as a long lasting reminder of the evening. You have given us a priceless gift and we thank you Anita. Until our paths cross again...
Anita was AMAZING. I hired her for her henna work, but got much more. Our event was a birthday party for my 10-year-old daughter and she was so good with the girls. They loved the henna, but also loved her and the process. She was very friendly and patient and helped each girl feel special. She was able to complete 10 tattoos in 90 minutes. Then I (mom) snuck in for one and am sooo glad I did. Anita has such a positive energy and calming presence that really carried me through the chaos of 10 girls at a sleepover, lol. I would highly recommend her and would totally hire her again. I have not one suggestion for improvement or negative thing to say. The business side of things was smooth as well - prompt, organized, etc. Bonus - seeing my tattoo as I type really brings a smile to my face. 😊 Keep up the great work, Anita! I hope our paths cross again someday. 😊
I had Anita come to my daughter's 13th Birthday to share the henna experience. She is so personable, engaging and professional. She showed up with fun textiles and cushions to create an authentic environment. Her work is amazing she needs an extra star for the rating system. You will love her and her artistry.
From the beautiful set up to her interaction with the party goers, Anita made the party spectacular! She took her time with each guest and was very accommodating to some last minute changes :). We look forward to seeing her at any future events!
For my birthday, I wanted to get a henna tattoo and I chose Anita because of her five star rating. And she is most certainly a five-star henna artist and more! Anita was great! She walked me through the gigsalad booking process (which was good because this was the first gig I booked on here) and she kept in-touch up to the day. I wanted to make sure the detail work would be good and Anita not only put me at ease but most certainly delivered! And as a person, Anita made me feel so comfortable; it felt like I was meeting with a friend. She puts a lot of care and love into her work, and it shows. She even followed up with me the next day to make sure the henna had given good color; which it did! She had even tested the batch the night before on herself to make sure. She cares a great deal about what she does--both the henna and the people she does is for. She is extremely talented and without a doubt she is my henna artist for life. I just cannot say enough good about her! Wonderful experience, wonderful person.
Anita just left my house and I feel the need to give her an utterly positive review immediately! She deserves nothing but the utmost praise for her Henna artistry that she performed at my daughters 16th birthday party last night. All of the girls were so amazed and pleased with their tattoos that they got. She was professional, efficient, and extremely personable with myself and each one of the birthday guests. My daughter even stated several times how nice she was and was extremely thankful that I hired her for the party. I highly recommend hiring her if you are looking for the best of the best!!!
She did an amazing job ! Everyone loved her and her designs. I'm so happy I picked her she is the real deal.
This past Friday my organization, PEARLS for Teen Girls, hired Anita to offer Henna to our PEARLS girls at our annual Holiday Party for program participants. This event was one of the largest we've ever hosted with about 500 attendees. The theme was 'Winter Carnival' with various booths for girls to visit. The Henna booth was by far the most popular with a long line the ENTIRE 2.5 hours. Each design was unique and beautifully crafted! The girls just loved Anita and her work. We couldn't be more pleased with our decision to book Hands of Henna for this event and will definitely be inviting her back for future events. Give her a try, you will not be disappointed!
This review is long overdue...
I'm an English teacher at a small, non-profit, at-risk high school on Milwaukee's South Side. In my curriculum, my class learns about marriage traditions from around the world. Within that unit we study the Mehndi marriage tradition and observe and create various henna designs. For two years I have asked Anita to do a hands-on henna demo and to talk about her knowledge of India and Indian culture; Anita has been grateful enough to oblige and she couldn't be more wonderful.
My students were engaged and fascinated by Anita's marvelous stories about her experiences in India. Her talk had a strong and positive message, which my students also appreciated. It is especially important to note how talented Anita is as a henna artist, but even more impressive and admirable is her passion for henna and her one-of-a-kind personality.
I feel so blessed to have connected with Anita, and I believe she would serve as an amazing artist for any occasion - to provide instruction, entertainment, therapy, or simply for fun. She is one of a kind.

You can expect a real, loving, genuine time, with a true henna artist, who uses ONLY all natural hand made henna...A memorable experience...one you won't forget!
...from the beginning, I was an artist. I graduated from Milwaukee Institute of Art and Design. Drawing major, illustration minor. From portraits, murals, painting...then to henna. I read the book, The Red Tent, it peaked my interest in Henna. I had the pleasure of meeting the Author, to personally thank her for being the catalyst of my henna journey. This year I won the National Henna Contest! I have taught classes about the history of henna and how to use and create with it. Almost 8 years, I have brought my all natural henna cones with me in all my travels...I even had the pleasure of hennaing in India! I am a wife, mom, artist, traveler, dreamer and a lifetime committed henna artist.

My influences are the best henna artists from all over the world! Natural and pure inspiration from the beautiful people I meet, their stories and experiences...I have to this day, have yet to meet a person I didn't find interesting and delightful, it's really true!
It has been an amazing life.
